Default Abortion (debate)

I'm at it once again!! Trying to see what people's opinions are!!! So tell me...what do you think? This is a debate topic, so no one is talking bad about anyone in particular, so if you get offended easily, step away from the topic. But if not.....enjoy!!!

Abortion should be legal. Whether you are against ever having an abortion or not, it should be legal. Every living human female deserves the right to choose what to do with their own body.

But it's not her body. It's a baby's body that she is killing.

its not a baby yet, just a mass of tissue. only slightly different than a non-malignant tumor.

Sure their own body, but not the person's body who is residing in it at the time. Those two lives are completely different. Abortion is murder. Do I have the right to decide whether a woman should have the right to end the life that is residing in them? No. So, in that case I would have to say that it should be legal, but I don't think abortion is right.

^^^ in a sence I understand when it cuz of a rape

but when its because the girl doesnt want a baby then no, cuz I feel as tho she should have thought of that before she let herself get pregnant.

what if one of the babys that had been aborted long ago would of been a doctor and found the cure for something.

no in the end it shouldnt be legal but if its cuz of rape then yes I believe the person should have that option

it's "Off-topic".

I think 1st term abortions should be legal, but if a woman has an abortion, regardless of the reason, she should be sterilized.

Why sterlized?
You have to draw a line in the sand somewhere, because I don't think women should be allowed as many abortions as they want.
I realise some women will be raped, and don't want a rapists child, but you can't be in-and-out of court with a rape conviction in less than 3 months(and that's not even appeals). again, you have to draw the line somewhere i think.

Exactly, seattledave! Abortion should not be used as a form of birth control.

She made the mistake to become pregnant in the first place. If she didn't have to open her legs, she wouldn't have a baby in her. Understandable?

As with rape.......there are so many people that would love to have a child but can't, so they have to adopt. If I got raped, I would have the child and put it up for adoption.

And now I have to go to work for 8 hours....I am excited to see how this topic will blow up!!!

See you when I get back!!

i think sterilizing the female population would cause a lot more drama than any abortion debate

So popping one out just so u have a clean conscience (sp) without ever loving it is more HUMAN than "killing" it while it's still not a fetus?

Do you know that a 5-month old fetus was delivered last month and is alive and well today?
Legally, that could have been aborted.

Just a point that it's not black & white.

Should it be legal?
Under certain circumstances, by all means.
Under ALL circumstances, no.

If most American's were Buddhist abortion wouldn't even be a topic of discussion.

I agree with you.

But where to draw the line?? and if it will be legal for rape case only victims and there are women who want to abort but haven't been raped they will lie and say they were raped.
